dd-wrt

Really long time ago I set up my dd-wrt router up as a repeater. It works well; in the summer I place it near the garden and I have wifi in the garden. I would like to revisit te settings and see if it would be a good idea to install openvpn.

The problem is: I don't remember the ip of the router.
I probably followed the setup instructions on the dd wrt wiki.

it doesn't show up on the management-console of my main router (a docsis3 modem); it doesn't show up if I do an IP scan of the whole class B; it doesn't show as the gateway when i connect to it (wired or wireless).

Any ideas on how I could find the web-interface?
